How Now Google Cow

Just a quick post to point out that if you haven’t seen Google Body Browser, it now comes with added Bovine goodness. (Firefox 4 or Chrome needed to access)

In addition to the female body that was used in the beta version, you can now explore a male body and even that of a cow.

Google Cow

I heard initially that this may have been an April Fools prank, given the day it was released, but someone from Google tweeted me to say it was staying. Which I think is great.

I’m now hoping for more animals to get added. It would be great for comparative anatomy – compare the skeletons of a human, a cow, a giraffe and a whale for example. How do they compare? Do giraffes have more bones in their neck or just the same bones, bigger? How about a bird or a fish?

Nice one Google!
